Great product poor dimensions
The solar film certainly did the job. After making up cardboard and film filters for my telescopes I had great views of a pure white sun. Also some not so good photos but that was down to me not the solar film but it proved photos are possible. The only negative was the size of sheet. As most lenses are round, ie top to bottom and left to right are the same dimension, the sheet size needs to be square to accommodate them. I had to settle for a 200mm filter for my 250mm Dobson because the sheet was 290 x 210 approx. The next size up was half a sheet at about £64 and I would have had a lot of waste. Why not 300 x 300 and 210 x 210 at least keep them square.

Reached the parts that our solar glasses failed to reach
On the day of the partial eclipse we found the sun was not powerful enough to view through the recommended eclipse glasses due to cloud but out lens made from this material using the enclosed directions, for our camera and binoculars, worked a treat. Really good material. Expensive but we have loads left which we will store for future eclipse viewing opportunities.

Cheap but good alternative to expensve options.
This film allows a solar filter to be made using little more than the film itself and a quantity of cardboard. The resulting filter is safe, effective and considerably cheaper than a commercial filter. The A4 sheet is suitable for telescope apertures of up to 8", but with some waste. More sensible approach would be to sell the film with square dimensions to cut down on waste. The film works well but perhaps could be a little cheaper if consideration was given to the waste caused by the rectangular shape for a circular telescope fitting.
